The Blue Jays Clanged A Bushel Of Dongers Off Yu Darvish

Yu Darvish is in the process of serving up a plate of nice tasty meatballs for Blue Jays hitters to feast on.

This Is The Closest We've Gotten To Finding The Beer-Throwing Blue Jays Fan

The police have not yet identified the shithead Blue Jays fan that tossed a beer at Hyun Soo Kim last night, who the team said was able to slink off into the night before security could apprehend them. This, despite the rigorous work done by certified expert internet investigators such as myself. Wh...

The Beer-Throwing Blue Jays Fan Got Away

There’s a pattern here. Four years ago at the Rogers Centre someone nailed an umpire with a beer. Three years ago a fan chucked a full beer can at the Orioles’ Nate McLouth. In last year’s ALDS, the crowd protested a bizarre play by littering the field with trash, a scene lowlighted by a baby being ...

Buck Showalter Fucked Up

I watched Buck Showalter neglect to use his lights-out closer in the ninth and tenth and eleventh innings of a tied, loser-goes-home baseball game, and I watched it work for two of those innings! All I can say is: I’ve seen people at the blackjack table hit on 17 and get 21, too. I’ve never seen any...

Edwin Encarnacion Hit A Walk-Off To Goddamn Mars To Put The Blue Jays Through

The Blue Jays beat the Orioles in the eleventh inning of tonight’s Wild Card game thanks to a huge three-run dinger from Edwin Encarnacion.

An extremely rude Blue Jays fan tossed beer at Orioles left fielder Hyun Soo Kim as the Orioles closed out the seventh inning. It nearly hit him, and right after it hit the grass, Kim and Adam Jones immediately turned to the crowd and tried to identify the beer tosser....

Jose Bautista Kicks Off MLB Playoffs With Towering Dong

Hell yeah buddy, the MLB playoffs are back. Jose Bautista hit a tall dinger to score he first run of the postseason in the second inning. Bautista got way under this 3-1 pitch from Chris Tillman, but that didn’t matter, since he hit it to the dang moon....

Root For The Blue Jays In The Playoffs

The unruly Bat Flip Boys are at it again.

Blue Jays, Orioles, Giants Win; Disturbed Fans Who Anticipated Tiebreaker Games Lose<em></em>

Baseball’s postseason is set after a day that brought promises of excitement like we saw on the final day of 2011's regular season but delivered the most predictable and boring result as all three teams that controlled their own destiny won, shutting out the pretenders that hoped to force tiebreaker...

The Blue Jays Are Beefing With The Local Media

The Toronto Blue Jays are in a tight race for the American League wild card, and last night’s loss to the Orioles didn’t make things any easier. They are now facing a three-game series against the Red Sox, and need to hold off the Tigers and Mariners, who are 1.5 and two games back, respectively. It...

Beef! We've Got Yankees-Blue Jays Beef!

Jose Bautista Admires Huge Dinger With A Backwards Home Run Trot

The AL wild card-leading Blue Jays got shut down by King Felix Hernandez this afternoon, managing just pair of hits over seven innings. Fear not. Jose Bautista has a flair for situations like these. With one out in the ninth inning, Bautista sent an Edwin Diaz fastball to the dang moon, then trotted...

Ben Cherington Is Back In Baseball As Not-A-GM For The Blue Jays

When Ben Cherington was effectively forced out from the Red Sox organization last August, the team was on its way to a second-straight last place finish in the AL East—and just two years removed from a World Series win. ...

The Yankees Are Not Dead

The Yankees are, impressively and unexpectedly, still relevant. Despite trading away or easing into retirement much of their high-priced veteran talent, New York has hung around. Here we are on Sept. 7, there’s a crispness to the air, the kids are heading back to school—and the Yankees are 4.5 games...
